News: BR: Stephen Jones: Diggs Faces 8-Month Recovery After Knee Injury Surgery

[blueblood70]

first of all this is not what I heard and I don't think it is gonna be this long this is like worst case scenario I heard it was a meniscus tear whether he's having it trimmed or sewn it's a six month recovery time if that he will be back in time for training camp this is not a one year injury these people saying he might get back by December no this is not a injury to his ACL show me read the story this is just people speculating until it's post surgery we hear from an actual doctor how the surgery went and actually what kind of surgery it was everybody speculating again he I'm trying to play on it if it was that significant it tells me it's more of a clean up surgery.... In my opinion he will be ready for training camp they'll bring him in slow he'll start the season game one that will be all if we're all gonna speculate I'm speculating on the positive side I heard it was a meniscus..

 

[blueblood70]

Probably won’t be ready for the start of next season.

I think he will it's all speculation I heard it was a meniscus he would have been trying to play every week he wouldn't have came back if this was that serious yes all surgeries can be labeled serious but this is not an 8 month recovery in my opinion I think he's gonna be ready for training camp but they'll work him in under pup once again and he will start season game one if everyone wants to speculate I'm speculating on the good side this is not another ACL this is not major surgery when I heard it's some kind of meniscus but until we actually hear what the surgery is and what the surgeons say post surgery that everyone's speculating once again... But given the fact that we start the season what in September that would be month 9 of 2025 and if he has his surgery and they say it's eight months but it's probably not i say he's gonna be fine

Zimmer is a huge issue on this team, groz again

Sure buddy

 

[SiCk_DiAbLo]

The more injured Diggs gets, the more skidish he gets...

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Our team is nuked

 

[MyFairLady]

Good news for the run defense

 

[vlad]

When he comes back hopefully he doesn't line up 10 yards off the ball.

But what if its 3rd and 4? lol

 

[BlueStar22]

Rushed Gallup back off an ACL and I see him now out shopping at HEB in Frisco with his son. Rushed Terece Steele back and he isn't what he was before the injury. Rushed Diggs back and he's injured again and requires more surgery. Theme here?

 

[ericb7709]

Cut him team doesn't have time for made of glass players

 

[atlantacowboy]

We have an out this offseason. We can save 2M in cap space for 2025 and get out of having to pay out the remainder of the contract he never lived up too. Before he went down, he was the 86th ranked CB on PFF. So, even healthy, he's been a below average CB this year. He's definitely not going to get any better this offseason. We need to cut bait.

 

[J_Allen]

But what if its 3rd and 4? lol

Well then in that case he'll be 12 yards off.

 

[nobody]

Is he still going to avoid tackling when he comes back?

 

[Bigrandrn]

Wow. ACLs are probably two year injuries unless you are AD. Overshown probably shouldn’t come back until 26.

Hell, Jerry Rice and Rod Woodson returned in the same season.

“Gods” of football and Hall of Famers.

When will yall stop telling this lie? Anything but hold the players accountable. Players come back every year after acls to perform. Either Dallas' doctors suck or the players are weak. Pick one

 

[Bigrandrn]

He will if Zim is still around.

GROZ

It’s annoying when DCs use players outside what they are good with…..I think they did that with NMandi Asomouagh (sp) when he left Oakland for Philly.

“Gods” of football and Hall of Famers.

maybe Overshown will be ready by next season…….big hope

 

[Coogiguy03]

needs to line up 10 yards away from them LADIES!!!

 

[Coogiguy03]

Every contract here sucks.

You don't like our approach??? Teams everywhere should adopt our team contract signing methods. Player is ready for a mega deal, we talk bad about him, say how we don't have the money, player is being greedy, we can't build a team that way, BOOM before the season starts "record deal!"

 

[plasticman]

I don't mean to laugh.......

but,

At this point, what is an appropriate reaction?

if the "injury bug" was a sentient being, what is he thinking, right now?

"Now that I've tossed this season is in the trashcan, hey, let's work on destroying next season!"

 

[Teague31]

So he and Overshown are basically shelved until 2026. Awesome.
